Hyland is committed to the professional growth of its employees, both as technical experts and leaders.
Pros
Hyland embraces training and continuous pursuit of mastery. The experiences are diverse and challenging. The pressure to perform well is low, but they motivate you to generate results anyway. Management is very flexible and reasonable with personal/family needs. It's not exactly a results-only work environment, but if you're producing excellent work, there are many informal benefits to being an employee. The work/life balance that they espouse is probably the truest part of Hyland's identity. Coming to work is a joy.
Cons
Even though they are beyond the size and presence of a start-up, they have many small-minded mentalities and practices usually attributed to start-ups. Management dances around critical feedback (especially if it's negative) and there are "untouchables" in the organization that are around, simply because they have already been around. The company pats itself on the back quite a bit (usually deservedly so, but not always), so there is some complacency in areas that are crucial to its future excellence and status as a leader.
